◉ what occurrence is an effect of beta-1 adrenergic receptor
stimulation.
Answer: increased renin secretion
◉ which body parts are regulated by the ANS.
Answer: smooth muscles and glands
-eyes
-heart
-urinary bladder
-respiratory system
-GI tract
◉ stimulation of what receptor will cause increased heart rate.
Answer: Beta 1
◉ drugs that stimulate the PNS.
Answer: cholinergic agonists (by mimicking ACH)
,◉ complications of anticholinergic drugs.
Answer: dry mouth, tachycardia, blurred vision (due to blockage of
cholinergic receptors)
◉ what would a nurse monitor while observing the activation of
muscarinic receptors.
Answer: increased bronchial secretion
◉ cholinergic drugs that stimulate muscarinic receptors are
indicated for:.
Answer: lowering intraocular pressure in a pt with glaucoma
◉ antidote for overdose of atropine (flushing, dry skin and mucous
membranes, mydriasis, alt mental status, fever).
Answer: physostigmine
◉ Antidote for benzodiazepines.
Answer: Flumazenil
◉ when should you not give bethanechol.
Answer: if the pt has low BP (hypotension)
◉ which drug is used for myasthenia gravis.
,Answer: neostigmine (prevents inactivation of ACH at
neuromuscular junction, causing increased nerve transmission and
skeletal muscle activation)

treat glaucoma.
Answer: pilocarpine hydrochloride
◉ what NSAID can be administered through IV.
Answer: Ketorolac (can also be transmitted orally)
◉ gout.
Answer: metabolic disorder of uric acid and purines; inflammatory
condition of joints and tendons. caused by accumulation of uric acid
and creates tophi, pain in joints
◉ foods containing salicylates.
Answer: prunes, raisins, licorice, paprika, curry
◉ prostaglandin function.
, Answer: -vasodilation
-inc capillary permeability
-inc platelet aggregation (inflammation)
◉ Cardinal signs of inflammation.
Answer: redness, swelling, heat, pain, loss of function
◉ a pt is at an increased risk for a stroke. The nurse anticipates that
the health care provider will prescribe:.
Answer: aspirin (low dose)
◉ antiinflammatories inhibit what substance.
Answer: prostaglandin
◉ which physiological change occurs during the delayed process of
inflammation.
Answer: infiltration of leukocytes into the site
◉ pathophysiology of pain.
Answer: chemical mediators sensitize the pain receptors
